Albert De Alba Sr. is a renowned lowrider builder whose work embodies the rich heritage and artistic tradition of lowriding culture that has seamlessly passed from one generation to the next. Over the years, Albert has crafted numerous iconic and unforgettable lowriders, each reflecting his extraordinary skill and passion. Among his masterpieces is "Touch of Wine," a beautifully transformed 1980 Toyota Corolla, showcasing his meticulous attention to detail and creative flair. Perhaps most notable is "El Rey," a magnificent 1963 Chevrolet Impala built in heartfelt tribute to his father-in-law. This vehicle not only highlights Albert's remarkable craftsmanship but also underscores the deep familial bonds and cultural significance woven into the fabric of lowriding.

Thank you Peterson museums for showcasing these artists that are not as mainstream as the ather types of artists. I live in Santa fe NM and the culture is big in Our state but we will never be recognized like the artists in California. Thanks again top notch video.

NM is definitely on the map for those in the know. Española comes to mind and I'm way up here in Canada lol

Nice! Rohan Izawa has his style of automotive paint art, however, low riders always had that over the top automotive artwork. I think both styles are masterpieces in their own respective right 👍

Your Mexican or Hispanic to be politically correct. But Latino.. no, people have fallen into a fly trap after many so called comunidy leaders or those with influence have bunched all Hispanic ethnic groups into one. To know the difference between us is to be educated in our ancestral backgrounds.
